Take to the skies with a 30-minute flying lesson from London Oxford Airport at Kidlington, just north of Oxford city centre. This renowned and lively airport is the perfect place to experience life in the cockpit. You will fly in a four-seater aircraft, seated up front alongside a qualified instructor. After a pre-flight briefing, you will head out onto the apron and up into the skies above Oxfordshire. As this is a genuine trial lesson, you will have the opportunity to take the controls and experience what it really feels like to fly. It’s a fantastic introduction to light aircraft flying from one of the UK’s most well-known training airports — and the perfect first step into aviation.
